Prices of digital products are declining in many markets, but in the design space they seem to be going up along with quality. In this posts I’ll outline some observations I’ve made since 2007 when Iconfinder was launched.

We have updated the designer profiles. Many icon designers now have thousands of icons in hundreds of icon sets, so finding the right icon from your favorite icon designer can be difficult. We’ve added a couple of features that will help you: search and collections.

We’ve made a small update to the search interface and more specifically how filters work. You can now check a checkbox which lets you save your filter settings. If you choose this option, you will see your filter setting appear on the homepage, the next time you visit Iconfinder.com. So, for example, if you prefer vector icons only, you can have that filter on permanently.

It’s a small update, but it can you save time and energy during a day with heavy design work. We hope you like it – let us know in the comments below.
